BBQ catering for your event in Broughton
Some hosts in Broughton pair a barbecue with a hog roast, giving guests both the spectacle and the variety. Ask and we’ll quote for both. Popular choices include halloumi skewers, coleslaw and pulled pork, and we’re regularly asked to cater work barbecues and charity fundraisers.
A barbecue in the countryside near Broughton makes a lovely summer party. Have a covered area for guests in wet weather. You will know what’s included before booking: the date, the serving time, the menu and the plates, with no surprises on the day.
Working with your venue
If you’re a venue or event planner, we can fit around your other suppliers.
If you’re planning an event on someone’s behalf, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, tell us who our contact on the day will be. We’ll keep you both updated.

What BBQ catering costs
Here’s what affects the price:
- Numbers
- Whether you want china
- Travel to Broughton
- Access to the cooking area
The menu makes a big difference to the price: a simple menu costs less than one with brisket and ribs, so we list each item in the quote. Ask us to suggest a menu for your budget.
Getting an accurate quote
When you get in touch, it helps to include:
- Any dietary needs or allergies
- Your date and serving time
- The venue or postcode
- Rough numbers
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We will confirm availability and send a price. Fill in our quote form.
The process
Our chef runs the grill while our staff serve, so service stays steady. After service, we clear up and pack away. By late September, sunset in Broughton is about 7:10pm; in December it’s about 4:00pm. A lunchtime barbecue avoids the dark.
- You tell us the date, the address, rough numbers and when you’d like to eat.
- You get a check on the date and the spot, and a quote.
- On the day we arrive in good time, put the cover up and get the barbecue hot.
- At serving time, the chef grills and the team serves.
- We pack everything away when everyone has eaten.
Getting ready for the day
- Confirm numbers ahead of the day
- Arrange lighting for a late barbecue
- Make sure the cooking area is away from walls, tents and trees

Planning help
Diets, allergies and alternatives
Allergies and dietary needs are easy to manage if we know in advance. Tips:
- Ask about allergies when guests reply
- Tell us how many vegetarians and vegans to expect
- Let us know roughly how many children are coming
- Ask us to label vegetarian and vegan food
Pulled pork and brisket are ready from the moment service begins, so nobody waits for the first burgers.
A hog roast and a barbecue together cover every taste.
What comes off the grill
Beef burgers
Our chef grills beef burgers to order, straight from the grill to the bun.
Salads, coleslaw and potatoes
Choose from salads, coleslaw, new potatoes and jacket potatoes, depending on the occasion.
A catered barbecue compared with other options
Next to doing the barbecue yourself, no host is stuck flipping burgers all afternoon, and the food is cooked properly by people who do it every week. Compare like for like: the menu, sides, service time, staffing, crockery and travel. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.
Why Broughton hosts choose us
- Meat-free choices on every menu
- Burgers, ribs, pulled pork, brisket and more
- A choice of salads and potatoes
- Timed around your day
Space, access and the venue
Most gardens, car parks, yards and fields work with a little planning. Here’s what we look for:
- Clearance from walls, marquee sides and overhanging branches
- A level spot in the garden, on the patio or drive
- Access through a gate or passage wide enough for our kit
If you are unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we will say what we think before you book.
